How old is Lautenberg anyway, 146?

It seems that old sh*t just won’t go away.

[reg45]

The 0bama regime will be funding research into nonflammable petroleum.

[ScottinVA]

“Most people don’t realize that our cars are powered by mini-explosions of gasoline in the vehicles’ engines,” Lautenberg said. “This strikes me as an unnecessarily dangerous way to get around."

Yes, because that's such an UNPROVEN method of firing an engine. New Jersey.... PLEASE.... next time around, but that old, senile turd out to pasture!

[plain talk]

dangerous? Going to the moon was dangerous. going to Anarctica is dangerous. heck - walking in Detroit or New Orleans is dangerous.

[Psycho_Bunny]

It’s just lame satire.

[alloysteel]

Is Lautenberg still breathing?

He has taken the longest “Weekend at Bernie’s” in the history of the world.

Lautenberg is one extended farce. Makes you wish for “The Torch” back. At least “The Torch” was upfront about his corruption.

[BenLurkin]

Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) shouldn't even be in the Senate.

Unfortunately corrupt judges on the New Jersey Supreme Court rewrote New Jersey election laws in the middle of an election.

[CORedneck]

Frank should have stayed retired ! I also remember that he was a big proponent of keeping the speed limit at 55 mph. He is this rich executive and want us lowly serf to put up with more of the elite’s bull$h!t ! He should be first in line to get inconvenienced by his crazy notions !

[kromike]

A plausible as the article sounds, this is satire, Ladies & Germs....

Yes, drilling offshore is very dangerous, but we have to do it to provide the American people with energy. Too bad we didn't open up more of the North American Continent (onshore) to exploration or built about a thousand more nuclear plant.

It really is so difficult to write political satire these days. I used to enjoy writing it, but it’s hard to write irony and ridicule as even anything so far extreme as to be on the edge of unbelievable has become ordinary and believable by the libtards. You can’t really come up with anything so ridiculous that there isn’t one of them on record as having said or done it.

Vices, follies, abuses and shortcomings are all so common that it’s almost impossible to hold them up for ridicule. And as soon as you do, one of the libtard poiliticians will certainly do everything they can to exceed it or prove it true.

I’ve totally given up writing any political satire and reading articles written as satire seem to miss the mark as so many people will actually believe they’re true. Or all they’ll have to do is wait awhile for the libtard pols to step in it and make it just a prediction, not satire.

I hope God blesses our country soon. It’ll be beyond even His power to fix if we let the pols go much further. (And yes, that’s irony and hyperbole.)

[shankbear]

This guy is a nutball. He is insane and probably needs a diaper change. Call Bawney Fwank to do that little job.

[Waverunner]

Doesn't Frank know that David says we can put out fires with gasoline.

[ViLaLuz]

“Vehicles powered by electricity, wind, solar, or foot-pedals would receive grades from “C” to “A” depending upon how impractical they are.”

HAA HAA HAAAAAA!

[Viking2002]

John, I don't care if your name is all over this. Democrats have gone so far 'round the bend, Drudge could link to this, and people would deem it acceptable behavior from those lunatics. It's pretty bad when a worthy effort at satire ends up looking mainstream. (Through no fault of your own.)

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

[NoCmpromiz]

A plausible as the article sounds, this is satire

I noted that it was satire, but it is difficult to view it as such when it is within the realm of possible things that Lousenberg would say.... (I lived in Jersey for 15 years..)

Maybe it's predictive news...

[ScottinVA]

It’s just lame satire.

LOL!! aw man... sure is. But it sounded so... Dem.

[arthurus]

The /s tag isn’t really useful anymore. It has come to have the same meaning as the /L tag (liberal.)
